MCC NEET PG 2025 counselling: Resignation deadline extended to December 29th with forfeiture of security deposit
New Delhi: The Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) under the Directorate General of Health Services (DGHS) has announced an extension of the resignation deadline for candidates admitted in Round 1 and Round 2 of the National Eligibility and Entrance Test Postgraduate (NEET PG) Counselling for the academic year 2025, citing delays in the declaration of results by several state counselling authorities.
According to the official notice issued by the MCC in this regard, the candidates wishing to resign from their allotted seats in Round 1 or Round 2 will now be permitted to do so until 4:00 PM on December 29, 2025, subject to forfeiture of the security deposit.
In a significant relief to candidates, MCC has also extended the reporting period for Round 2 of NEET PG Counselling 2025. The new deadline for reporting at the allotted institute is 4:00 PM on December 29, 2025.
The extension aims to address concerns raised by candidates whose state counselling results were delayed or announced late due to technical or administrative issues.
The decision follows multiple representations received by MCC from postgraduate aspirants and state counselling authorities. Notably, the Rajasthan State NEET PG Counselling Board informed authorities about delays in declaring its Round-2 results due to technical issues and sought an extension of the resignation timeline to help affected candidates.
Therefore, candidates are advised to complete the resignation procedures within the extended deadline. Physically report to their allotted colleges, where applicable and be aware that resignation during this period will involve forfeiture of the security deposit.
